Wed, Aug 25, 2021 Instead of #ADayOffTwitch, it should be #PaymentOffTwitch / #SubOffTwitch. Why?
People not using the platform for a day does nothing because, not only is Twitch a free service, not everyone knows it's going on.
This isn't Twitch vs Marginalized Streamers. It's Twitch vs Marginalized Streamers vs Racists. They'll start targeting smaller, more vulnerable, streamers instead.
Twitch needs the bitch slap of SEEING people, ON their platform, supporting with other methods.
To name a few alternatives, there's:
Patreon
Locals
Ko-fi
Stream Elements
Streamlabs
Pay Pal
Google Pay
There's even AmazonPay, but I see people, understandably, avoiding it.
